    WEll from this distance, it looks fine. Love the quilt and the pattern. I think the quilt inspector likes it. Finish it as is and the binding or (?) and just go with it.

    It's pretty! If you don't love it, donate it! Great colors, the blocks look great!

    I think it is pretty. Like nativetexan says "get it done and toss it in the washer. everything comes out in the wash!! "

    I like it a lot, and with the Hot Rod Seal of Approval, how can you go wrong?

    I like it and if there are puckers I can't see them.

    I love your quilt - did you design this yourself? I have been looking at samplers lately and it looks like something fun to try - I think you did an awesome job.

    Have you every tried quilting with your walking foot after having left your feed dogs down and your Supreme Slider in place? I just couldn't figure out why that walking foot wasn't doing its job. LOL - I guess we all have those days. It looks great to me and I see the quilt inspector giving it the once over.

    Very pretty quilt. Just think, you did learn some patience in making all those blocks. Pat yourself on the block for learning how to do them. They look great! Like nativetexan says, it will come out in the wash. Bind it and donate it; someone will love it and be very happy having such a pretty quilt.

    This is a block of the month that our guild did, but it is online. I also did it in blue. I liked the blue, but this one hasn't felt right to me since I started.

    I wonder if I can find a picture of the blue one to attach. It might help you decide if you are interested in doing it.

    Well, the quilt looks better to me this morning. It still has puckers, but they don't jump out at me. What REALLY bothers me is that I think I made my last two quilts without using the walking foot. Dumb! It could be the reason why I struggled so much and took out so many stitching lines.

    My machine has a built in walking foot. I just have to pull it down!!

    But, I suspect I will not forget to use it again. Thanks for your compliments everyone. This quilt is going to our guild's charity quilt committee, so it will get loved (I hope) by someone, just not by me.
